I! Cleaner!-Chapter 1183 - 1085: Tactics and Supplementary Issues
With sufficiently powerful sticks and sweet chocolate, the assembly of The Twelve Kingdoms no longer resembles its previous tense state, and the situation in the latter half becomes exceptionally harmonious.
If benefits are gained, everyone will enjoy them together, but if the Food God is provoked, one must face the depths of Hell alone.
After understanding this crucial issue, one by one the matters concerning the Clearing Bureau and The Twelve Kingdoms were rapidly passed by the kings, almost carelessly swift.
Faced with numerous proposals targeting The Twelve Kingdoms, the queens at the gossip table occasionally struggle to secure a compromise, while the kings at the Leon table have lost their desire to fight, eagerly waving white flags as they vie to sign their names on the agreements.
When the total of fifteen formal agendas and related discussions marked with the "Thrush" emblem were concluded, seeing the list of agendas filled with checkmarks indicating passage, recalling the significance behind these checks, Miss Salted Fish's eyes appeared blank.
Although she didn't sincerely want to be this Queen Sayo, she took the throne just to find a way out for her mother and some of the Sea Race, these treaties of selling out and licking the boots of external enemies seem a bit over the top, don't they?
Among these nearly twenty proposals, if just one-fifth can be effectively implemented, the future Kingdom of Saio will largely depend on others, to the extent of such humiliating treaties, even a half-baked king like herself dares not sign them, how come others are signing one faster than the other?
"Even though you are a fake queen, you still care about what others in the Kingdom of Saio think, whereas they, albeit real kings, treat the entire kingdom as their private property... But the main reason they're signing so fast is that signing or not signing makes no difference now."
After satisfactorily collecting Miss Salted Fish's chocolate IOUs, William the Elder explained calmly:
"Big Brother told me, for small matters, hold big meetings; for big matters, hold small meetings; for vital matters, don't have meetings at all; truly important things will not be resolved at the negotiation table. Other kings aren't looking at specific proposals, but at the Clearing Bureau's attitude towards Big Brother.
Those kings understand that when the two directors of the Clearing Bureau relinquish their hosting positions and tacitly allow Big Brother to use the 'work content' of the Hell branch to threaten them, the result of this negotiation already has no suspense.
With the support and endorsement from the Clearing Bureau, even if they bite the bullet and refuse to sign, these agendas will still attempt to proceed. If they don't want to cooperate, plenty of others will.
"Hiss..."
After hearing the analysis William provided in exchange for five bars of chocolate, Miss Salted Fish couldn't help but take a sharp breath and then looked at William, who was still writing and drawing behind her, with surprise.
Why... she originally exchanged chocolate for notes thinking she would just have a chance to contact the Food God's brother, maybe extract some information, didn't take his notes seriously, but now it seems...
"Now it seems, after seeing the Clearing Bureau's stance, The Twelve Kingdoms have lost the intention to resist upfront, Big Brother has fully achieved his established goals.
Although the signatures at the negotiation table have some validity, they mainly count as a statement of commitment to cooperate, whether Big Brother's proposals can eventually be implemented, and to what extent, depends on how far Sister-in-law can push later on."
With the tip of his pen scribbling something on the notebook, William continued without lifting his head:
"If Sister-in-law truly leverages the treaties they signed to suppress the interest groups of other kingdoms and significantly reduce the probability of abnormal events, then providing the Clearing Bureau a satisfactory answer will ensure they don't dare to act rashly.
But if Sister-in-law can't quickly open the situation, is overwhelmed by complex circumstances, then those who don't care about their reputation will stealthily start dragging their feet, even trying to tear up the agreements... but these definitely won't happen."
"Ah? Why?"
"?"
Are you serious?
When Miss Salted Fish asked, William glanced at her in surprise, seemingly unwilling to answer such a naive question, but after pondering for a while, probably considering those creamy chocolate IOUs yet to be redeemed, he decided to respond:
"Because Big Brother is more shameless than they are."
"???"
"Even if they signed the agreements, they wouldn't willingly admit defeat like that, but Big Brother also won't be satisfied ending at this level.
If all goes well on Sister-in-law's side, then that's fine, Big Brother is a person of patience, can wait until the perfect timing to continue, but if Sister-in-law encounters trouble over there, gets hindered by others..."
The Food God will likely directly step in, starting to use more 'thorough' off-the-record tactics!
After grasping the essence of William's meaning, Miss Salted Fish suddenly felt a chill in her heart, then couldn't help but glance towards Leon.
After the kings from the Leon faction opted to surrender, the expression on the Food God's face softened entirely, the previously occasional oppressive feel that could not be refused disappeared, replaced wholly by a gentle smile...
Except for his eyes.
Looking at those eyes different from the other 'gentle' facial features, appearing slightly indifferent when observing certain kings from the Leon faction, Miss Salted Fish's breath moments paused, fully agreeing with William's judgment.
